PHPmailer not found

When trying to access the suggest page I receive the following errors, have tried other answers from students but nothing working.

Warning: require(../vendor/phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/treehouse/workspace/suggest.php on line 4

Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '../vendor/phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /home/treehouse/workspace/suggest.php on line 4

The code I am currently using...

use PHPMailer\PHPMailer\PHPMailer; require '../vendor/phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php'; require '../vendor/phpmailer/src/Exception.php';

Can you post a snapshot? Click the camera icon in the upper right corner, then 'Take Snapshot', then post the link created here.

Thanks for looking, here's the snapshot https://w.trhou.se/bqy49jkksh I have tried other solutions offered but nothing seems to work, I have checked the code over but perhaps I have missed something.

I found the issue, don't trust treehouse code trust your instincts. The path in the treehouse code is ../vendor/phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php it should be just vendor/phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php omitting the ../ from the front of the pathname allowed it to work.

glad u solve it. i also found that the code she wrote isn't working anyways.
